[quote=Anonymous]I too have FEP BCBS and I see a Dr at one medical. I’m in my mid-forties, eat well, work out, but the extra 25-30lbs would not budge. After a few rounds of visits, I told my Dr I was frustrated with my weight and also my numbers like cholesterol and BP were heading in the wrong direction and would like to try a GLP-1. She wrote me a scrip for Wegovy (Ozempic for non-diabetics) and it got approved through BCBS. I’m now down those 30lbs. Since January 1. At first, Wegovy was $25 but with the changes at BCBS, it jumped to $400 with the manufacturers coupon. I have the Standard plan and Caremark finally started allowing Wegovy via mail order for Standard plans, so it’s now $125 for a 90-day supply which is great! Just go for it OP! Ask your doctor and check your plan. I was willing to pay the $400/mo if I had to. Also Zepbound is not covered under FEP but it’s also around $390. FEP would not authorize Zepbound without trying a different GLP-1 first. [/quote]
